You will not feel compression as the spark plug should be out and the cams should be visible to observe each timing.

That was the next test that occurred to me if leakage cannot be verified, just in case such dramatic change in behavior is due to an accidental non-congruence between the sparks and valves times.
I appreciate the picture, it shows how helpful you are The reason i mentioned that i already understand that is to set the standard and allow you guys to get straight to the point and use technical words with me.

Good point, I guess i have to observe cam positioning for the correct spark, or i can stick a long screw driver down the spark plug hole and watch it rise.
